Monster Mile

At Dover Jimmie Johnson will start in the rear of the field because of a gear change. This will certainly increase his level of difficulty, but a top ten is still achievable. Winning is likely out of the question. In fall 2015 Martin Truex Jr. started in the rear of the field at the Monster […]

Joey Logano – Said he was back in the ball park and his team hit up on something between practice sessions. His team fine tuned this session. Didn’t make any long runs and the broadcast booth thought his car wasn’t really where it needed to be. Jimmie Johnson – Had a very strong car this […]

1) Kevin Harvick (Starting – 6th) Dover Fantasy Spin – Kevin Harvick will be tough to beat at Dover. He’s done what seems impossible and has replaced Jimmie Johnson as the best default fantasy NASCAR pick. Since he joined Stewart-Haas Racing he’s performed at a “Super Elite” level and has been good enough to win the […]

Chase Elliott – Chase Elliott had a very successful Dover debut this spring. On Sunday I expect him to run well again and compete for a top ten. If anything I expect him to run even better, that’s not necessarily saying he’ll finish better because he was aided by attrition earlier this year. When the […]

Paul Menard – Outside of last falls race where Paul Menard crumbled like a cookie under Chase pressure he’s done a good job finishing well at Dover. Since 2014 minus last fall’s stinker of a performance he has an 11.3 average finish and a 15.8 average running position. This spring he didn’t have a great […]

Kasey Kahne – Kasey Kahne has been pretty successful at Dover recently. Currently at the Monster Mile he has three straight top tens, the only driver with a longer active top ten streak is Kyle Larson. Over these three races he has a 4.7 average finish, the 11th best driver rating and a 12.3 average […]

Kevin Harvick – Kevin Harvick has replaced Jimmie Johnson as the best default fantasy NASCAR pick at Dover. Since he joined Stewart-Haas Racing, he’s been good enough to win every race here. Over the last five Dover races he has the best driver rating, led the most laps by a huge margin (810), has a […]

1) Kevin Harvick (Starting – 1st) (Odds To Win – 6/1) Dover Fantasy Spin – The competition is in trouble on Sunday with Kevin Harvick starting on the pole. Nobody has been better than him in recent races at Dover. In each of the last four Dover races he’s arguably had the best car. On Sunday […]

Brad Keselowski – Said he’s not good anywhere, but not bad anywhere. Did some experimenting this session. Martin Truex Jr. – His team wasn’t in love with their car before Happy Hour. Did a lot of changes before the session. His car improved this session and he had good speed at the end. Austin Dillon […]
